Three -time Oliver Award-winner Sharon D Clarke is joined by Ncuti Gatwa (Doctor Who; Sex Education) in this joyful reimagining of Oscar Wilde's most celebrated comedy.
While assuming the role of a dutiful guardian in the country, Jack lets loose in town under a false identity.

Meanwhile, his friend adopts a similar facade. Hoping to impress 2 eligible ladies, the gentlemen find themselves caught in a web of lies they must carefully navigate. A hilarious story of identity, impersonation and romance.
Filmed live in the National Theatre in London.
